Ladies and Gentlemen, take your seats and listen carefully to the sound of this bizarre circus! Come discover the contrasting universe of the fairground through a work by Henri Sauguet.
From La petite Fille à la chaise and the Prestidigitateur to the Clown each of its facets is conjured up with panache by the composer, a worthy disciple of Erik Satie to whom the work is dedicated. Preceded by an introduction to the instruments, Grégoire Pont will embellish the performance with live illustrations, whisking us away into a magical and grandiose parade!
